Rev. Edward B. Smart Memorial Fund

On Sunday, November 4, the world lost an advocate for education. Rev. Dr. Edward B. Smart spent over 40 years as a pastor, community leader and mentor. He loved young people and pushed them to pursue their dreams. He also made sure they understood the reality that dreams without plans are useless. We wish to continue his legacy by providing financial assistance to those who face challenges with meeting the very basic requirements necessary to reach the next level.
For many young people in school districts facing economic adversity, the very basic things necessary to further their education can become insurmountable obstacles. Application fees for college admission, cleets for athletics, SAT testing fees, coverage of expenses for a college tour - these are the needs he would have made sure were fulfilled. So as a tribute to a life well lived and that had helped so many, we carry on his vision and dreams.
In partnership with faculty at the Steelton Highspire High School, his alma mater, we will implement outreach and gifts of love to those in need.
